This timepiece is a fashionable driving-inspired watch available at an affordable price from Quiksilver. The rubber wrist trap, with its perforations, mimics those found on driving gloves, providing a snug and comfortable fit. The stainless steel bezel curves or bends at sharp angles revealing more of the easy-to-read dial and hour-markers. All of these features are accented by the inset winding stem that have a racing red band at the tip. Water resistant for just over 130 feet, the MPH is a price-conscious alternative to the racing-inspired watches from Oris.

The tapered band width leading away from the watch face is a departure from the now staid and common style of the monolithic watch band width made popular in recent years. The angled bezel and crystal bring to mind the wraparound windshields of Le Mans racing cars, while the dial itself is reminiscent of a speedometer. This is style with a purpose in a handsome combination.

This is a well-made watch with a comfortable style. It’s not for the office (unless your office is the garage at the racetrack), but the MPH has an enduring simplicity not often found in casual watches at this price point, giving you value and style for years to come.

While you may not wear this watch every day after owning it for some time, you will find yourself drawn to it again and again when you just want to wear a watch with a little attitude.
